    Hey bud nice seeing another LT taco craw. They do so well. I'm in the same boat as of temps. I run in the mid 200's to high 200's. Which radiator and thermostat did you get? I really need to replace mine and get my temps down.

    Haha I almost always weld in a T-shirt in FL, it’s way too hot. I got some of those Kevlar sleeves to stop the burn though.

    Thanks man. I can't take most of the cred yet, I bought her LT. I've been going through it and making changes tho. Steering rack is super loose in the housing, inners are shot too. Just comes with buying someone else's toy.

    @SilverGhost
    They do crawl pretty well! I just got a "Performance Radiator" (brand) here in Phx for $108. It's stock style, plastic tanks and such. The last one was pretty grimey inside. I then used the Stant 170° thermostat. Holds temp between 179° and 185°. I recently switched back from electric fan to crank fan too thinking that was the main problem. It helped, but not enough. Then I thought the spot lights and winch were blocking air flow. I moved the lights and no change. Much better now after the new parts and coolant flush.

    @Ace115 It's apart of the Box Canyon trail network.

    Have you checked full lock and rotation when turning the steering wheel? They may look clear... wait till you start wheeling... shit will hit the fan. Trust me my 33x12.50s still bang the shit out of everything inside the wheel well

    Yea I’m sure they’ll hit. My 33s are millimeters away from hitting the pinch weld just before full lock and that’s after I beat on it.
